The spirit of Liberalism


Many in the west are under the spirit of liberalism, including even many genuine Christians. Liberalism is of the spirit of independence, which is rebellion and lawlessness. It leads to the mindset that one can do as one chooses. The self reigns supreme. As long as one has some desires, one should be able to satisfy those desires, is the philosophy of liberalism.

Much of what is called 'conservatism' in the west is really just a inoculated form of liberalism that is dressed under the trappings of 'Judeo-Christian' values. Such conservatism is full of the spirit of liberalism, and is at least as ungodly and worldly as its more ostentatious liberalism, often labelled 'leftism'. It appears more 'moral', making most professing Christians feel comfortable with it, that such an appearance is just a false guise of morality. The heart of such 'conservatism' only just borrows certain concepts of morality from the true Christian faith, and uses such concepts for advancing the flourishing and progress of humankind. Humankind is the ultimate measure of all things.

Liberalism is of the spirit anti-Christ, in making humankind supreme, and all things measured by the desires and wants of humankind. It is the height of rebellion and lawlessness, and despises the idea that one must obey God because of who He is, because regards humankind to be above God. Any commands of God must be submitted to the ends of humankind. Such is the essence of liberalism.

Two types of contentment

The world seeks contentment. It seeks to be contented in pursuit of all kinds of things, whether it be money, health, wealth, romance, sex, careers or family. It does not necessarily seek after riches to be content. However, that one does not seek after money as the first priority, but other things that are typically associated with good traditional values, such as family, does not in any way mean that one is content in the godly sense. By no means! A person can be a "conservative" and "religious" but just as earthly as the "liberal". There are two types of contentment: earthly contentment and godly contentment. Earthly contentment finds its fulfillment and satisfaction in things that are passing away, not necessarily money, but also things like family, education and children. Yes, that's right. Many professing American Christians think that they could never be under the spirit of mammon because they care for their families and love their families, a...

Signs of a Person under the spirit of mammon

Both the unsaved and saved can be under the spirit of mammon. Do not be deceived! An unsaved person can only serve mammon because it is not part of his nature to submit to God in any way (Romans 8:7). However, the Christian can most definitely yield to the temptations of mammon just as he can yield to the temptations of satan. This is what is means for a Christian to be under the spirit of mammon. The signs of a person being under the spirit of mammon are: The person does not understand the spirit of mammon. This is because he or she is blinded by it and therefore cannot see it. The person reacts whenever being confronted with being told that they are under the spirit of mammon, or being told that they may be under it. This is not the person themselves reacting, but the spirit of mammon reacting. The person is self-satisfied with the abundance that they have. This is especially the case with many Christians today. They are happy with having a family, a well-paying job, security...

The spirit of Paganism is of Degeneracy, Rebellion and Bloodlust

Paganism is the rejection and hostility towards all Christian virtues. It is not merely the unbelief in fundamental Christian theological doctrine, but the hatred of Christian virtues. This ultimately leads to the active, outright embrace of all manner of degeneracy. The scriptures describes such paganism in Romans 1:18-32:   For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who suppress the truth in unrighteousness, because what may be known of God is manifest in them, for God has shown it to them. For since the creation of the world His invisible attributes are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even His eternal power and Godhead, so that they are without excuse, because, although they knew God, they did not glorify Him as God, nor were thankful, but became futile in their thoughts, and their foolish hearts wer...
